What customers say about "Key Specs"

Iogear (GW3DHDKIT) Wireless 3D Digital Kit with Full HD 1080P and 5.1 Channel Digital Audio

This transmitter works great. it shows picture in 1080 HD. it is great for sending a cable picture from one tv to the other without cable lines.
I had my reservations about the accuracy of reviews, I thought that it wasn't possible to accomplish a 1080 picture without getting down and dirty running cable through crawl spaces and drilling holes in 2x4's or walls. No need, this thing actually works as advertised.
Signal is great on cable 1080 and 3d signal.
This product was very easy to setup. The range, even through walls is exceptional.
It works fine if they are pointing right at each other.
